Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi Scenic Sightseeing - Bicycle Rental & Lake Kawaguchi Cruising
- Lake Kawaguchiko is located at the foot of Mount Fuji and is one of the Fuji Five Lakes. The area around the lake is home to numerous tourist attractions.
- Our store is located on the shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, and it is no exaggeration to call it "the closest rental shop to the lake shore." It is close to famous spots such as Oishi Park and the Lake Kawaguchiko Bridge, making it ideal for planning cycling routes; it is also adjacent to the hotel district, making it a convenient choice for short-distance travel.
- Our rental service counter is also located inside the restaurant, which is a unique feature compared to general bicycle rental shops. Feel free to enjoy a meal or drink (drinks are available for takeout) while completing the rental process. We recommend the "rental bike + drink" combination experience.

North Shore of Lake Kawaguchiko In spring, enjoy the stunning view of Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchiko, and cherry blossoms all in one frame. In autumn, you can admire the picturesque scenery of Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchiko, and autumn leaves. Popular attractions such as the Kawaguchiko Museum of Art, Kawaguchiko Music Forest Museum, and Kawaguchiko Monkey Show Theater are also nearby, and we recommend planning a visit to these as well.
Oishi Park A must-visit when you come to Lake Kawaguchiko is “Oishi Park.” The seasonal flower fields add vibrant colors to the stunning view of Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko. This is also the main venue for the “Herb Festival” held every early summer, where you can simultaneously enjoy the cool highland breeze, the fragrance of lavender, and the magnificent scenery of Mount Fuji and the lake. We recommend enjoying a lavender soft-serve ice cream as a dessert after your meal. In addition, you can also admire the beautiful sight of bright red Kochia scoparia bushes and Mount Fuji in autumn.

Reviews
.The place to pick up the bike is quite far — we had to take a bus just to get there, which was costly and inconvenient. Since the bikes must be returned to the same location, it made the whole process a bit troublesome for tourists without private transport. The bikes themselves really need better maintenance. The one I got was old and had no basic accessories like a phone holder or helmet. There were no electric or double-seat bikes available as advertised, and unfortunately, mine even broke down halfway. What made things harder was the communication — we had to call them through a normal phone line, which is expensive for tourists who only have data plans. It would help a lot if they offered WhatsApp or another online support option. Overall, the cycling idea is great and the route has potential, but the service needs upgrading. With better bike quality, easier pick-up, and better communication support, this could be a wonderful experience.
There are either places around the same area with much nicer bikes. Most of these bikes were rusted/old. Generally it was cheaper and easier to take the bus.
Dear Customer, We are sorry to hear that the condition of the bicycle did not meet your expectations. We had passed your feedback to local merchant for future maintenance and service improvements. Thank you very much for your valuable review. Best regards, Klook Service Recovery & Insights Team
